TFAC

Developing New Molecules

We have extensive experience in developing and manufacturing aliphatic fluorinated compounds and derivatives. Developing new molecules based on TFAC and other compounds of our product range, is one of our key strengths.

Our development process aims at achieving the ideal synthesis route and production process: efficient and cost-effective. The service comprises the delivery of a first sample as well as trials at our pilot plant. We relieve you from REACH registration and ensure flexible and safe delivery. We help you speed up your development and to save valuable time to market.

Agrochemicals

Fluorine confers differentiating biological properties that makes its insertion on organic molecules attractive, as confirmed by the increasing number of fluorinated intermediates under development in the agro science industry (appr. 50 %).

We pursue a focus strategy to develop competitive processes that are safe to operate, sustainable and yield the required quality for existing fluorinated molecules for the agrochemicals industry.

We develop new routes to existing commercial fluorinated molecules that are cost competitive thanks to our expertise in fluorine chemistry.

We produce in-house or through our toller network, following the most stringent HSE standards developed at Solvay, based on a technical package released from our research and development center.
